Curator Engine information
What is Curator Engine?
Curator Engine is an open-source, self-hosted ecommerce core built for high-performance, search-driven marketplaces. Unlike traditional ecommerce platforms that treat search as an afterthought, Curator is designed around discovery first: fast search, structured browsing, and scalable catalog experiences. The platform includes a digital commerce core with customer accounts, purchases, secure downloads, SMTP support, and admin tools for managing products, builds, and content. Curator also supports themes and plugins, making it easy to customize storefronts and extend functionality over time. Curator Marketplace adds a developer ecosystem with submission, review, and publishing workflows for plugins and themes, helping keep extensions clean and trustworthy. The goal is to provide a flexible foundation for creators, developers, and businesses that want a self-hosted ecommerce platform they can truly control.**
